Aloe by Sherwin-Williams is also a pastel, a nostalgic nod to the mid-20th century.

“This is no ordinary pastel: Aloe is funky and glamorous, demure and free-spirited,” said Sherwin-Williams’ director of color marketing, Jackie Jordan.

“While Aloe’s vibe can verge on retro, when paired with caviar blacks, crisp whites or soft grays, suddenly Aloe has a new soul and attitude,” she said.

Designers are also digging this shade of green. The Kate Spade brand is pairing it with coral. In a recent interview, designer Jonathan Adler says the green color of Claridge’s luxury hotel in London — reminiscent of Aloe — is his current favorite.

How to use it: As an entire wall color.

For a tranquil aesthetic, Jordan recommends using Aloe with natural textiles, tarnished metals and warm wood tones in light to medium finishes.

For an energetic look, she suggests combining Aloe with vintage chartreuse, floral lilacs and vivid corals.

Best bet: A bedroom or bathroom, but the tub area only. “I’d steer clear of the sink area,” Jordan said. “It’s probably not the best color for skin tones.”

In a dining room use it with modern black and white accents.

Paint the walls Aloe in a gender-neutral nursery and add periwinkle and lavender accents to make it feminine, or yellows and grays for masculine look, Jordan said.

Schmitz says Aloe is beautiful set against Carrara marble and stainless steel with hot pink or coral accents. She calls it retro without harking back to the pale pink accents of the 1950s.
